Chapter 621 Family Letter [3]
Chapter 621 Family Letter [3]
Grandpa Qin said, "The camp and the government will prepare winter supplies for the soldiers. Dalang, Sanjun, and Laoer are helping the court, so they will also have a share of the supplies. We don't need to worry about this."
But Grandma Qin said, "They don't have official status. What if they are given the clothes at the last minute? What if the winter clothes are not thick enough? What if the clothes given to them don't fit them?"
Grandpa Qin was stunned by what he said.
Hahahaha, Qin Xiaomi just came out of the house opposite and saw Grandpa Qin was stunned. She laughed out loud without any hesitation, but Grandma Qin glared at her: "Don't laugh at your grandpa."
He looked Qin Xiaomi up and down again and was quite satisfied with her outfit today: "The high bun with a red silk ribbon, paired with a light blue thick shirt, black pleated skirt and pants, and white cloth shoes embroidered with gold chrysanthemums, this outfit is good. At your age, you should dress more brightly."
Qin Xiaomi smiled: "I thought grandma would say that I got up early today. After all, I got up before the frost melted."
My granddaughter did get up half an hour earlier than usual today.
But Grandma Qin said, "It's already noon. At this time, the farmers have been working in the fields for an hour. Don't waste time. Go to the front shop and have breakfast."
This is not a lie. Nowadays, people start working from sunrise to sunset. Around the morning, everyone gets up, works for an hour, and then goes home for breakfast.
Poor people only have breakfast at 9:00 p.m.… If they eat late, they can skip the middle meal and only need to eat two meals a day.
But the Qin family now has three fixed meals a day, and the food quantity for each meal is very sufficient. They can eat meat every day. If they don’t buy meat that day, they will also have two plates of fried eggs to eat.
In short, the Qin family’s current food standard has surpassed that of the landlords.
"Well, let's go have breakfast." Qin Xiaomi and others went to the front bunk together.
The Qin family lived in the four side rooms at the back of the shop, and the front shop was used as the main hall, where the family gathered, ate, and entertained guests.
In the front shop, Qin Xiaogu, Qin Ershen, Xiao Jiang Erlang, Qin Xiaogu, Qin Xiaomai, and Jiang Xiaozhu were already there.
Seeing Qin Xiaomi, Jiang Xiaozhu hurriedly shouted: "Sister Xiaomi, come quickly, there is egg custard for breakfast today!"
Then he said to Grandma Qin, "Aunt Xu said that these eggs are useless and will not kill all the chickens in the surrounding villages. Don't worry, Grandma Qin!"
Qin Xiaomi always asked Grandma Qin to kill chickens for food, and Grandma Qin said that the chickens in the surrounding villages were almost eaten to extinction by her family, so Jiang Xiaozhu would make a special explanation.
Grandma Qin was both angry and amused: "Just indulge your sister Xiaomi."
Jiang Xiaozhu: "Sister Xiaomi also indulges me, and Xiaozhu likes Sister Xiaomi the most."
Because she has become a wealthy woman thanks to the dividends given by Sister Xiaomi.
Qin Xiaomi laughed when she heard this, and sat down at the table. She pinched her cheeks and said, "Eat, and I'll check your homework after you finish."
After hearing this, Jiang Xiaozhu's face fell... She didn't want to do homework, not at all. She just wanted to learn how to count, how to do business, and how to hire people to do things for her.
But Sister Xiaomi said that if one has no knowledge, even if one can do accounting, do business, and understand how to employ people, it is still empty inside. One must have some knowledge to be able to control others.
Well, she learns!
Jiang Xiaozhu bit the flour pancake angrily, scooped a spoonful of egg custard, picked up a piece of stir-fried cabbage with chopsticks, and ate her breakfast.
The family members looked at her and laughed. She was smaller than Xiaomai, but she could already use chopsticks to eat flexibly.
After the family finished breakfast, Qin Xiaomi went to check Jiang Xiaozhu and Qin Xiaomai's homework.
Qin Xiaogu went to check the homework of Xiao Jiang Erlang and Qin Xiaogu.
Seeing that they had done their homework well, he nodded and said, "Very good, go to class and then work in the afternoon."
Nowadays, the children in the family get up early to learn martial arts, then go to literature lessons with old man Xun after half past noon, and help with housework in the afternoon, such as doing accounting, meeting guests with Grandpa Qin, running errands, etc.
I read medical books at night, and every two days I would go to take medical lessons with Xu Shanshan, Yao Xiaoge and Old Man Xun. In short, my life was very fulfilling, and I didn't have time to be lazy!
After checking the homework, Qin Xiaomi took Grandma Qin, Aunt Qin, and Second Aunt Qin to the new workshop.
The new workshop is at the very end of the new street. It is a villa-style house. It is not exquisite, but it has three entrances and three exits and covers an area of one and a half acres. It is twice as big as the new dye workshop in Guicun and is more than enough.
There are two large doors in front and back. When Xue Juan and his companions come to pick up goods, they only need to go through the back door. They don't have to get stuck at the same door every time.
There is also a well in the courtyard, which is really convenient.
"Good morning, little master."
"The young master is here."
As soon as Qin Xiaomi arrived at the villa, Chai Panniang and other female workers greeted her and asked how she was.
Qin Xiaomi nodded: "Morning."
"Xiaomi is here. These are the colored cloths that were dried yesterday. Take a look." Qiao Lizi came over with a smile on her face. Behind her were four female workers, each holding six pieces of colored cloth in her hands.
Qin Xiaomi unfolded the colored cloth, took a look, and nodded: "Not bad, there is no color difference, and the dyeing is more even and thicker, and the texture of the colored cloth is also softer."
"I'm not exaggerating. With our current dyeing skills, we can open a dyeing workshop."
Qiao Lizi smiled and said, "You are exaggerating. If those merchants heard it, they would probably say that our workshop is arrogant."
Qin Xiaomi didn't care at all, and even said something more arrogant: "Don't our families have the right to be arrogant? Just the fact that we fought against the East Desert spies, bandits, and assassins who massacred the village, we can be arrogant for at least three generations!"
Regarding the matter of the Dongmo spies, the second branch of the government army has posted a notice to inform all the people, hoping to use the help of the people to catch all the hidden spies.
So there is no need to hide it anymore, everyone can speak out against spies openly.
"Ha, that's true." Qiao Lizi laughed out loud. "With such achievements, three generations is not enough. In five generations, when others mention it, they will tell our descendants that his ancestors once fought against the East Desert spies who massacred the village, saved the entire village, and uncovered a major case that had been lurking for a century."
"Because of this case, several major merchants have been much more polite to us recently. Even Mr. Wen came to pick up the goods in person."
The masters of the Wen, Jin, Jie and Kang families were very arrogant and had not been to Taifeng Town for a long time. But as soon as the spy incident came out, Mr. Wen, the Kang family and the Jie family rushed here again.
Now he lives in the new warehouse, and asks the Xue family to send things to the Qin family every day.
Qin Xiaomi was annoyed, so she asked them to send the gifts to Silifang, and have them sent to her family after getting approval from the clerk at the customs. Otherwise, the Qin family would worry that a hidden spy might have poisoned the gifts, and her family would be poisoned to death if they received the gifts!
When Mr. Wen and the others heard what she said, they wanted to strangle her to death.
But now the Qin family is no longer the victims of disaster, nor are they nouveau riche. Instead, they are the family that has made great contributions in discovering the spy who has been lurking for a hundred years. They dare not look down on him anymore and have to do as they are told and take the gifts to the Silifang.
Now, carts full of gifts are piled up in the Wu family’s house, filling up the old house.
Qin Xiaomi walked around the new workshop, checked the color soup, and then went to another shop in her family.
This shop is adjacent to the one where the Qin family lives now. It is now the residence of the family maids. Xu Azheng is recuperating here, and she comes to visit every day.
"Young Master." Xu Azheng was able to get out of bed, but she still needed crutches to walk.
"How do you feel today? Is there any pain anywhere in your body?" Qin Xiaomi asked.
Xu Azheng smiled and said, "No, everything is fine. I even ate two extra steamed buns soaked in soup today."
When recovering from an injury, Xu Azheng ate liquid food and ate small and frequent meals. It is not advisable to eat a full stomach at one time when recovering from an injury.
